Please tell us about your submission (maximum 600 words)
my submission is about how women and the overall female sex/gender is oversexualiized by the media and those around them. we see so much growing up about what our bodies should look like based on the male gaze, we also are told how to act or dress in a certain way based on our age so that the adults around us could justify how they treated us and viewed us as we grew older. this is all because of the patriarchy and how it has established control and power of the female body as well as our actions and anatomy
What is something you learned about patriarchy and what is something you would like to change about what you learned?
they love to have control and power of those they demm below them so as long as they have a say or part in the situation they are satisfied until the next time. it also goes to show just how much people who deem themselves to be the superior being or personification of perfection like to subject everyone else to their standards and force them to assimilate. if we were to change this i feel as though we should get ride of those who are in control of certain aspects of a culture that they are not a part of and be replaced by someone who has lived their entire lives being subjected t this outsider point of view.after we do that i believe we should have limitation on who can and can't be in a position of power while also making sure that if they are in a position then they are being helpful and respectful as well as inclusive to everyone under that lable who identifies as it.
